Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:John D'Alton, from its old location at User:Paul S Stuart/sandbox/John R D'Alton. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. -Liancetalk/contribs 13:23, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
Copyright permission for a hand drawn map

I wish to upload a hand drawn map to my article and the author has given me his permission by email. Is there an easy way of attaching his permission to the image to meet Wikipedia standards. Is it necessary to ask him to go through the process of CC0 which will be a bit of an imposition? Is there a form of words he can use on an email to meet the standards?

- You may want to take a look at Commons:Email templates. 78.28.54.200 (talk) 05:02, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for this - the template looks like it will work well. However it looks like I need a URL address for the file on Commons and I'm not supposed to upload anything until I have permission. Catch 22? I've already experienced someone deleting my article because of a perceived lack of permission so I'm a bit nervous! Any advice?
Thanks Paul S Stuart (talk) 07:13, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Paul S Stuart see the end part of the lead section - you can just upload the file but add {{subst:OP}} during or after uploading to the file to mark it as OTRS pending. Alternatively if using the "Interactive Release Generator" Wizard then the file can be attached at that point. Hope that helps, Cheers KylieTastic (talk) 09:32, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
